EVERY SIGNATURE MATTERS - THIS BILL MUST PASS!

Friday, December 25, 2015

Worst of all in the performance of this worst of all secretaries of state is her lashing of Israel. She is complicit in this administration's "counting Jews in Jerusalem." Now, as EMET's Sarah Stern points out, she stands by, mute, as Egypt's new foreign minister radically reinterprets that country's 33-year-old treaty with Israel. Foreign Minister Amr, quoting the new Muslim Brotherhood president, claimed that the treaty should stand only if based on the pre-1967 borders of Israel.....

Hillary Clinton: America's Worst Secretary of State... And it should not go without mention that she
has pushed an agenda of abortion and homosexuality worldwide. None of
this makes Americans safer or more esteemed in the world.

Under
Clinton's leadership, the State Department approved $165 billion worth
of commercial arms sales to 20 nations whose governments have given
money to the Clinton Foundation, according to an IBTimes analysis of
State Department and foundation data. That figure -- derived from the
three full fiscal years of Clinton’s term as Secretary of State (from
October 2010 to September 2012) -- represented nearly double the value
of American arms sales made to the those countries and approved by the
State Department during the same period of President George W. Bush’s
second term.

The
Clinton-led State Department also authorized $151 billion of separate
Pentagon-brokered deals for 16 of the countries that donated to the
Clinton Foundation, resulting in a 143 percent increase in completed sales
to those nations over the same time frame during the Bush
administration. These extra sales were part of a broad increase in
American military exports that accompanied Obama’s arrival in the White
House. The 143 percent increase in U.S. arms sales to Clinton Foundation
donors compares to an 80 percent increase in such sales to all
countries over the same time period.

American
defense contractors also donated to the Clinton Foundation while
Hillary Clinton was secretary of state and in some cases made personal
payments to Bill Clinton for speaking engagements. Such firms and their
subsidiaries were listed as contractors in $163 billion worth of Pentagon-negotiated deals that were authorized by the Clinton State Department between 2009 and 2012.

The
State Department formally approved these arms sales even as many of the
deals enhanced the military power of countries ruled by authoritarian
regimes whose human rights abuses had been criticized by the department.
Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar
all donated to the Clinton Foundation and also gained State Department
clearance to buy caches of American-made weapons even as the department
singled them out for a range of alleged ills, from corruption to
restrictions on civil liberties to violent crackdowns against political
opponents.

Now, the IBTimes is back at it, with a look at the Clinton State
Departments’ chemical arms sales to Middle Eastern governments who gave
to Clinton family charities. Here’s more via IBTimes:

The Clinton-run State Department’s approval of chemical
and biological exports to the Egyptian government increased in volume
just as dollars flowed from Mubarak-linked entities into the coffers of
Clinton family concerns. A group closely associated with the
Mubarak government paid Bill Clinton a $250,000 speaking fee in 2010,
less than 4 months before the Egyptian revolution began. In 2012, a firm
with an ownership stake in the company that manufactured the tear gas
reportedly used by Egyptian security forces against the uprising paid
$100,000 to $250,000 for another Bill Clinton speech.

The approval of American chemical weapons sales to Egypt as
Mubarak’s associates were stocking Clinton family interests with cash is
but one example of a dynamic that prevailed though Hillary Clinton’s
tenure as secretary of state.

(Clinton with Mubarak)

During the roughly two years of Arab Spring protests that
confronted authoritarian governments with popular uprisings, Clinton’s
State Department approved $66 million worth of so-called Category 14
exports -- defined as "toxicological agents, including chemical agents,
biological agents and associated equipment" -- to nine Middle Eastern
governments that either donated to the Clinton Foundation or whose
affiliated groups paid Bill Clinton speaking fees.

That represented a 50 percent overall increase in such export
approvals to the same countries over the two years prior to the Arab
Spring, according to an International Business Times review of State
Department documents. In the same time period, Arab countries that did
not donate to the Clinton Foundation saw an overall decrease in their
State Department approvals to purchase chemical and biological
materials.

The reports released by Clinton's state department since 2010
disclose overall export numbers. For instance, in 2010, export
authorizations to Egypt’s government for chemical and biological agents
saw a one-year, 38 percent increase in the lead-up to the revolution
against Mubarak’s government. That year, the Mubarak-aligned American
Chamber of Commerce in Egypt paid Bill Clinton $250,000. Two close
Mubarak allies were past presidents of the group, one of whom reportedly
was sent to lobby Washington against a proposed resolution that would
call on Mubarak to have free and fair elections.

In all, in the two years after Bill Clinton was paid by the
Mubarak-aligned group -- and as uprisings against the Egyptian
government swept the country -- the Clinton-led State Department backed a
12 percent increase in exports to Egypt in the biological and chemical
agents category.

As discussed at length in these pages over the past several years, US
foreign policy in Egypt has been a miserable failure. Washington — and
Clinton specifically — were forced to reverse course on their support
for Mubarak after the country "democratically" elected the Muslim
Brotherhood's Mohammed Morsi. Egypt's honeymoon with democracy was
short-lived however and Morsi, after an ill-fated attempt to grant
himself "special" powers, was overthrown in a military coup. He was sentenced to death last month.

(Clinton with Morsi)
Here's a bit more color from the IBTimes report...

Some Clinton Foundation donors from the Middle East did not see
an increase in authorizations for toxicological agents during the Arab
Spring, but did see big increases earlier, soon after Clinton came into office in 2009.

Algeria received just $2,110 worth of State Department
authorizations in the chemical and biological weapons category in fiscal
2008. But the next fiscal year -- 80 percent of which was under
Clinton’s tenure -- the country received more than $6 million worth of
such Category 14 authorizations. Five-point-eight million dollars of the
authorizations were for items classified as “tear gases and riot
control agents.” The next year, the Algerian government gave the Clinton
Foundation $500,000. Amid the Arab Spring revolts in 2011, Algerian
security forces used tear gas on protesters in the capital.

...and here's a look at the numbers...

Do not be surprised to see further revelations surface as the Presidential race heats up.

US foreign policy in the Middle East is notoriously fraught as
Washington routinely seeks to support whichever regime seems most likely
to advance America's narrowly construed, short-term interests. This
dynamic is complicated further when the nation's top diplomat is also
effectively in charge of an organization that accepts tens of millions
in donations from the same governments with which the State Department
conducts business.

The
scene could hardly have been more bizarre: U.S. Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton's motorcade was pelted with rotten tomatoes and shoes as
she was being driven to the opening of a U.S. Consulate General in the
ancient Egyptian city of Alexandria. The mob chanted "Monica, Monica"
to taunt the former first lady with the name of the woman with whom
President Bill Clinton told us "I did not have sexual relations."

Egyptian
journalist Mohammed Wahby warned us back then that this affair could
have dangerous ramifications in his part of the world. Wahby told PBS's
Jim Lehrer News Hour that Bill Clinton's scandal would inflame Islamists in his part of the world. Clearly, it has had lasting repercussions.

Secretary
of State Hillary Clinton's ostensible reason for being in Alexandria
was to take part in the flag-raising ceremony for our Consulate
General. This is a disgrace. Alexandria was once home to a flourishing
Jewish community. Jews flourish there no more. Her symbolic presence
there embodies everything wrong about this administration's foreign
policy.Until
recently, it was hard to say that Hillary Clinton was the worst
secretary of state in U.S. history. After all, it was Sec. of State
William Jennings Bryan who resigned in 1915 when President Wilson typed a
too-one-sided note to Germany following the torpedoing of the Lusitania. Bryan thought Germany was being ill-used by the dithering Woodrow Wilson.Then
there was Sec. of State Cyrus Vance. He quit President Jimmy Carter's
Cabinet in the wake of the failed effort to rescue our 52 hostages in
Iran. The crash of two helicopters and the deaths of a number of U.S.
soldiers dashed the hopes of millions. But Vance quit not because the
rescue attempt failed. He quit because it was made.How
can you top, or bottom, such egregious records? Hillary Clinton has
managed to do it.

She hailed the election of Mohamed Morsi as Egypt's
president. This Muslim Brotherhood candidate has pledged to be
president of all Egyptians. Tell that to the Copts. And the
Evangelicals. He doesn't consider them part of Egypt's polity. Sharia
is his program. Jihad is his way. For confirmation, consult the Muslim
Brotherhood's own founding documents and its unswerving statements.Worst
of all in the performance of this worst of all secretaries of state is
her lashing of Israel. She is complicit in this administration's "counting Jews in Jerusalem." Now, as EMET's Sarah Stern points out,
she stands by, mute, as Egypt's new foreign minister radically
reinterprets that country's 33-year-old treaty with Israel. Foreign
Minister Amr, quoting the new Muslim Brotherhood president, claimed that
the treaty should stand only if based on the pre-1967 borders of
Israel. In brief, that means Israel shrunken to nine miles at the
narrowest point -- a wholly indefensible border.

Madame
Secretary is not just a disaster throughout the Mideast. Her Russian
policy has been a catastrophe. She sternly warns the Russians (and the
Chinese) that they "will pay a price" for their vetoes of U.N. sanctions
against Syria's Alawite regime.The
old schoolyard taunt applies here. "You and what army?" This
administration is headed toward sequestration of our defense budget.
The cuts envisioned will take America's army back to pre-Pearl Harbor
strength. The Navy will see more ships lost than at Pearl Harbor.Clinton's
toothless threats to make Russia pay a price must evoke laughter in the
Kremlin.

This is the same Russia to which she gave a pass with her
infamous red "Reset" button in 2009. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei
Lavrov was not amused at her adolescent gesture. He pointed out that
she hadn't found the right Russian word for "reset" (it translated to
"overcharge"), and the button was not even in Cyrillic characters.Madame
Secretary was only too happy to send ten Russian spies home in first
class. She didn't want to let anything disturb President Obama's
"Hamburger Summit" with then-Russian President Dmitri Medvedev. What an
act of weakness! And the Soviets -- er, excuse me, Russians -- would
not be slow to feel the slack in our foreign policy line.Under
Hillary Clinton, we no longer have a "special relationship" with Great
Britain. She has echoed Barack Obama's use of the Argentinian name for
the Falkland Islands. Britain had to go to war with the military junta
that ruled Argentina in 1982 to protect the right of Falkland Islanders
to self-determination. President Ronald Reagan staunchly backed Britain
and his stalwart ally, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. But no more.
Madame Secretary refers to the Falklands as "Las Malvinas." (At least
she didn't compound the gaffe by calling them the Maldives, as Mr. Obama
did!)We
recognize that our fellow Americans give Hillary Clinton high marks.
But that is doubtless attributable to buyers' remorse. If only Hillary
had been elected president, many feel, we might at least have Bill
Clinton-era prosperity.In
her chosen field of foreign policy, however, Hillary Clinton has racked
up a terrible record. And it should not go without mention that she
has pushed an agenda of abortion and homosexuality worldwide. None of
this makes Americans safer or more esteemed in the world.

Maybe she was willfully blind to the direction her policies were
heading or maybe she lacked the political courage to speak up, but the
erosion in the U.S.-Israel relationship began on her watch. And since
leaving office she — maybe the only figure in the country who could
rally Democrats — has been silent while the administration publicly and
through background leaks has berated the prime minister, widened the
rift between the two countries and thrown concession after concession at
the feet of Iran’s mullahs. She did not criticize the president for
suggesting that killings of Jews in a French kosher market was “random”
or speak out about the rising scourge of anti-Semitism in Europe. For
all her concern about the plight of women and girls, neither in office
or since leaving has she highlighted the plight of women, say, in Gaza
or elsewhere. She was, however, happy to take millions for her
foundation from governments that back Hamas (Qatar) and persecute women.
Sorry, but she’s an enabler in Obama’s anti-Israel vendetta.

Hillary
Clinton is second to none in evading responsibility, but on this the
question is presented: Are Jewish voters going to hold her accountable
for her actions, demand nothing of her in the campaign and still vote
for her in overwhelming numbers? I suppose so, but it would be a
delightful surprise if prominent Jewish supporters
and leaders would speak up. It is only because they demand nothing that
she feels free to do anything. Perhaps Martin O’Malley will run as the
pro-Israel Democrat. (Might I suggest he and Harvey Weinstein talk?) When it comes to being a “friend of Israel,” Hillary Clinton is a fraud.

Mazel Tov - Rabbi Hershel Schachter!

CLICK ABOVE PHOTO! Rabbi Moshe Feinstein states the very marriage of a gentile woman to a non observant Jew, is equivalent to an open declaration that she will not observe the precepts. This is so, because it is highly unlikely that the gentile member of such a union, will be more committed to Judaism than her remiss Jewish husband (certainly when they are living together prior to their marriage). Unlike mental or tacit negations, explains Rav Feinstein, open declarations do invalidate conversions. When such cases appear before a rabbinical court, its members actually become witnesses to an acceptance declaration that is not sincere. Therefore, it is no longer a tacit insincerity, but rather an obvious one. As such, they are forbidden to sanction the conversion. Regardless of what this Jewish court may declare, the conversion is invalid and the person is not deemed a member of the Jewish nation. In Iggros Moshe, Letters of Moshe (Yoreh De’ah, no. 157), he writes that “According to the Law, it is certain that one who converts for the sake of marriage, does not intend to keep the commandments, and is not a proselyte at all.”
